it seems that this binary is linked against the old linuxthreads glibc and fails
to allocate the thread stacks due to randomization, so just disable that one PaX
feature on it and it should work (as it apparently does) and also feel free to
tell the folding guys that it's time to move into the 21st century and switch to
nptl. at least that one doesn't want to allocate executable stacks.
